We're dividing 12007883 by 231 
Our goal is to divide 12007883 by 231.

Moving on to step 1:
1 divided by 231 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 231

On to step 2:
When dividing 12 by 231, we get 0 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 12 leaves us with 12.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 120 / 231

Advancing to step 3:
231 can be fit into 120 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 120.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 120 to get 120.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 120, then repeat: 1200 / 231

Moving on to step 4:
231 goes into 1200 5 times with a remainder of 45.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 1155 from 1200 leaves us with 45.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 457 / 231

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 457 by 231, we get 1 and a remainder of 226.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
Subtract 231 from 457 to get 226.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 226, then repeat: 2268 / 231

Step 6:
If we divide 2268 by 231, we get 9 and a remainder of 189.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 519.0
If we take 2079 away from 2268, we end up with 189.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 189, then carry on: 1898 / 231

Step 7:
The number 231 fits into 1898 8 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5198.0
If we subtract 1848 from 1898, we get 50.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 503 / 231

On to step 8:
When dividing 503 by 231, we get 2 with a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51982.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 462 from 503.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 231 fits into 410 1 times, leaving a remainder of 179.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 51982.1
If we take 231 away from 410, we end up with 179.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1790, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
231 can be fit into 1790 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 173.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51982.17
If we subtract 1617 from 1790, we get 173.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1730, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
231 goes into 1730 7 times with a remainder of 113.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 51982.177
Subtract 1617 from 1730 to get 113.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1130, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 51982.177, with a leftover of 0.0113.
